The Vogue theatre was a fantastic theatre in it’s day, during the early 70’s it started showing Blaxploitation Films and also showed Mexican movies to a dwindling audience, several attempts to jump-start it’s once grand existence failed. In 1981 they re-opened for a while and I remember going to see ‘The Blues Brothers’ there.
It’s current tenant, a church called; ‘The Pentecostals’, bought the entire building, removed the Vogue Signs and over the last few years removed all reminders of this once great theatre.
